Fresh fried bream

[Top Dawg]

Saturday after we caught a bunch of bream in lacassine, we cleaned em and decided to fry a few. I picked a couple green tomatoes out my garden and fried them also along with some waffle fries. Been a long time since I had whole fried bream and didn't realize how much I missed em.

Looks great, like posted above first bites tails and fins. Long time since had a fresh water fish fry. The post reminds me that when I was a kid we would fry fish that night in the summer months, then freeze the extras in a waxed half gallon milk carton for frying in the winter months.

How exactly do y'all go about frying bream whole?

Scale them, cut off the head and gut them, cut a slit or two into the thickest part about an 1/8" deep. Batter them like regular fish and fry them whole. Don't forget to clean out the abdominal cavity really good.

We do small catfish like that as welland flounder except we skin the catfish.
